Hi, Maybe accidentally maybe there was no option for registered mail (I'm not sure which was the case) there's a package (0 - 100 grams) on it's way to me with regular international mail. I just wonder; is it safe, I mean will I really receive it? Cem. |

I've used it several times without any problems, but maybe I was just lucky.

I'm never wrong, once I thought I was but I was mistaken. |

I've mistakenly used non-registered mail a couple of times and always got my package....although the last one did take over 30 days to get here and had me a little worried

Most times you will get your order but a few more bucks and you get tracking and refund for no order. Also with no tracking if you do not get your order you are just out. As HK site says they do not refund orders without tracking.

With those 100 gram pkts there is only $1 difference for registered service.

Please explain why HK would even offer Non-Registered International Air Mail? For the difference of $1 it makes no sense. I think customers who selected Non Registered shipping did so by mistake. Eliminate that choice, and the problem is solved.

If you're buying a couple of really cheap things, like heatshrink, or a pack of connectors, or a neckstrap, an extra $1 is a significant portion of the purchase price. I've made a couple of small, low value orders and have had no issues with this method (yet).
